Wolf Hall

Let's face it, we're all looking for a little escapism these days. Journey back to the past with these ten lavish - and highly entertaining - historical dramas, availble on a streaming platform near you! 

As the decade wraps up, we look back on the Best British Shows on PBS since 2010.

The first installment of STARZ's preiod drama The Spanish Princess has ended. Our Janet Mullany takes a look at the real-life history of Catherine of Aragon and discusses how accurate the show's portrayal of Henry VIII's first queen was. 

Here’s a piece of news most Anglophiles probably thought they’d never hear: Wolf Hall is coming back.

Wolf Hall reaches its inevitable conclusion, as Anne Boleyn fails to save herself, while Thomas Cromwell watches her fate, knowing one day it will most likely be his own.

In our penultimate episode of Wolf Hall, Cromwell changes the course of history twice, once when his desire to see Jane Seymour has unexpected consequences, and once when Henry VIII dies.

This week's episode of Wolf Hall takes the plot of the famous A Man For All Seasons and turns it sideways.

Meanwhile, Anne may have nutured her way to be queen, but nature is refusing to cooperate.

In this week's episode of Wolf Hall, Thomas Cromwell hooks himself to a rising star, as Katherine of Aragon is deposed and Anne Boleyn ascends the throne.

Last time on Wolf Hall:  Our board was set up for the Great Game to play out. We met our major players: Cromwell, whose life up until this point was played out in quick flashbacks. Also taking their places: Henry VIII, Anne Boleyn, Thomas More, Mary Boleyn, Cardinal Woolsey, Norfolk and all the rest.

This week, the power players begin to make their moves.

Wolf Hall returns to PBS' Masterpiece for a second engagement, and to remind us what Peak TV really looks like.
